Editorial Review for Canton Equestrian Center – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
This barn is worth the visit if for no other reason than to view the breathtaking Blue Hills Reservation. An interest in hunt seat or dressage is another reason to visit. This 8-year-old barn has four instructors and 10 lesson horses available to anyone 6 years old and up with an interest in riding. The center offers both indoor and outdoor arenas.

CEC is a great boarding and lesson facility. There are two outdoors, an indoor, two barns and a heated tack room, viewing room and bathroom facilities. The owners are awesome and Owen is a farrier, so no need to travel for shoes! Great lesson program and friendly atmosphere. There is a quarter mile track around the property and excellent trails in the Blue Hills *directly* across the street. Very busy place, so best stop by if you want to talk to someone! Most of the naysayers in the reviews here are not knowledgeable about horses and think they are large fuzzy bunnies. A thousand pounds of horse coming at you on his back legs may deserve a roundhouse or two, and Winona did not die of leg injuries (who came up with that ridiculousness?). Experienced horse people and common sense beginners will love it at Canton Equestrian.

Pros: excellent location, reasonable fees, trails directly across the street, knowledgable on premise owners, good instructors and care

Cons: hard to reach by phone
